crinolines!

Discussion (29)¬

  1. Calaros says:

    Haha oh god, she got the moves.

  2. Rick in Mexico says:

    Hmm. Petticoats upended, glasses askew … nope, no foreshadowing here.

    Tess is so cute when she’s awkward. Is she wearing a whalebone corset for further authenticity?

  3. Meg says:

    oh. my. god. i just died a little. and so we are reminded of why they built wider doors during the crinoline period.

  4. Allison says:

    Teeheehee! Oh, the perils of old-fashioned hoop skirts! XD

  5. Amy says:

    Death by Crinoline..tonight on Fox News @ 10
    >:D

  6. Tina says:

    LOL. Awkward humor…. YES! XD

  7. Jo says:

    This made me laugh like a dork.

  8. Sky says:

    Poor girl.. XD

  9. Francesca says:

    SOOOO adorable :D ! Awkward romance abound with this week’s Battle of Dovecote Crest.

  10. Erin says:

    Hahaha! Wow. It took all my self control not to laugh out loud at this one. I probably should know better than to read this comic in class…

  11. Redd says:

    I was under the impression they knew each other. xP She just fell for a total stranger? I can’t wait until Ben comes back. xD

    Love Justin in the ninth panel. When crinolines attack! ><

  12. Jennifer says:

    I love the first panel.

  13. Wynne says:

    Oooooooh! Pretty swirly things in first panel!!!

    And this would not be Dovecote Crest without the crinoline-induced hijinks… I love how sweetly awkward she is!

    Can we assume that Justin here has a last name that starts with “B” and is related to the CIvil War, as opposed to actually being named Bee?

  14. Bex says:

    HEE HEE! Tess romance. So cute! -^^- I feel bad and awkward for her about the skirt thing… but I am also laughing my head off xD

  15. Shoe says:

    Haha, I love it! Oh Tessie, you’ve done it now…

  16. grumble says:

    a determined tour guide Tess is.

  17. Adrean says:

    One wonders about the reactions from the kids on the bus… ;) When crinolines attack, indeed. :D Thanks for the laugh!!

  18. Cheryl says:

    *G* Yeah, they’re a real pain in the rear, Tess. A pain in the rear as you try to maneuver so that no one ends up seeing your rear because your skirt flew up in the back. It’s nice in the summer, though, to have the crinoline holding your petticoats and skirt away from your legs, allowing the air to circulate.

  19. Paige says:

    Oh that is amazing!!!! I almost fell out of my chair I was laughing so hard! Beautifully done!

  20. Jess says:

    Oh, Tess. You made my day :P

  21. mollie says:

    Aww poor Tess, and she was just regaining her dignity too…

    Does anyone else love Justin’s secret smile?

  22. Evelyn says:

    Ooh, ouch! That’s awkward! If I did that in front of the guy I liked…. *Shudder*

  23. rachael says:

    hahaha thats ALWAYS what happens lol
